Hi all,

I would like to ask a question regarding work authorization. My I -130 has been approved last December, now we are in the process of my immigrant visa.

My husband ( USC) has been laid off last September, looking at the bad economic situation right now in the states I am very worried to move to the states unless if I have a job. I am currently have a job in Bermuda and can support for both me and my husband with my income. We will have his brother as our co sponsor. Below please find my time line

March 2008- File 1130 at VSC

April 2008- NOA receipt

November 13 2008- case transferred from VSC to CSC

Dec 16 2008- 1130 approved

here is my question

1- is it possible once I completed my interview and have my visa I move there once I get a job, trying to find from Bermuda, reason is I dont want to leave my job and move there with no job. I know we have 6 months after the visa has been approved for me to move there within that time.

2- Looking at my time line how long do you think that my case will be completed?

3- How much the co sponsor income need to be in order to be qualified? 54,000 p/a?

4- Let say if we decided to delay our paperwork and have him coming over here instead since I dont feel secure on moving to states , and later down the road maybe next year we want to proceed again, is it going to look bad on our paperowork in the future?

5- During the interview do I need to bring all my old passport?

6- Lastly once my visa has been approved and I didnt move to states yet since I have 6 months period but decided to visit him occasionally like I am doing now is that possible? Is there going to be any problem at the POE?

Thank you in advance for all your response. Any idea or recommendations for my situation is welcome.

1) you can try but finding work LD is not simple

2) You could possibly "drag your feet" for about a year

3) Depends on the Sponsor's size of household +1

4) No

5) Current valid passport

6) No, they will want to process the visa but you can travel right away

YMMV

Thanks for the reply,

wow, I didnt know that it will take 1 year for the immigrant visa since my I-130 has been approved in Dec 2008. So since my sponsor is single how much is the minimum income requirement?
